Trelleborg acquires marine docking and mooring solutions company


Trelleborg has, through its business area Trelleborg Offshore & Construction,
signed an agreement to acquire Marimatech A/S, a market-leading company in
marine positioning and piloting systems, primarily specializing in the
development of software used for docking or mooring ships offshore or in ports.
The acquisition will broaden and supplement Trelleborg’s product portfolio
within berthing, docking and mooring solutions for ports and vessels.

The acquired company has its head office and production site in Aarhus, Denmark.
The company’s global sales totaled approximately SEK 50 M in 2014. This bolt-on
acquisition is part of Trelleborg’s strategy to strengthen its positions in
attractive market segments.

“The acquired company has a successful navigation and ship positioning product
line using the latest 'smart' technology, which can be used on other marine
applications and integrated with our existing range of products. This
transaction will enable us to strengthen our offering as an attractive turnkey
supplier of marine docking and mooring solutions for owners and managers of
ports and vessels. Our global footprint within docking and mooring will also
provide opportunities to expand the sales of the acquired company. The market
prospects for marine systems are favorable, particularly as increasing vessel
sizes and new requirements drive the need for a smarter approach to port and
terminal efficiency,” says Fredrik Meuller, President of the Trelleborg Offshore
& Construction business area.

The transaction is expected to be finalized in the fourth quarter of 2015.
